Coach Mourinho failed to see Rashford score in a substitution match

VIỆT ANH |

After a 2-0 victory over Leicester in round 3 of the Premier League, Man United head coach - Jose Mourinho admitted that he could not watch Marcus Rashford's opening goal.

This is a late match on August 26 of round 3 of the Premier League 2017-2018. Thanks to two goals in the 70th and 82nd minutes from two players coming off the bench, Rashford and Fellaini, Man United kept all 3 points at Old Trafford.

Speaking after the match, coach Jose Mourinho revealed that he could not follow Rashford's opening goal because he was busy instructing Lingard before bringing the player on the field.

He said: "I didn't see the first goal. At that time, I was busy talking to Lingard because he was the next one to come on. When I turned out, the ball was in the net, the players were dancing up to celebrate, everyone around me also danced up.

I understood that we scored because it was the first time I heard a real cheer from the crowd. They were silent today so I knew it was a goal.

The 3-match winning streak since the beginning of the season partly comes from the solidarity of Man United today. According to coach Mourinho, this has been practiced since his pre-season training trip in the US.

The Portuguese coach revealed: "The current team is a unit. The atmosphere was friendly and the whole team had great sympathy.

We have prepared very well for the season, not only in great conditions but also working 24 hours a day in a place with a beautiful atmosphere like Los Angeles.

We have faced strong teams, met the best team in Europe (Real Madrid) twice. That preparation is complete.

Man United continued to maintain their top position in the Premier League with 9 points after the win over Leicester. In round 4 on September 9, they will visit Stoke City.
